Stopwatch seconds kinda breaks when it reaches 10. Any help?
I've been trying to make a stopwatch for an obby game of mine, which times you as you complete it. When the stopwatch reaches 10 however, it breaks and say "00:010" instead of "00:10" like its suppose to. If anyone could help, that would be great.
Its inside a local script with its parent being a textlabel.
01 | local startmin = 0 |
02 | local startsec = 0 |
03 | local text = script.Parent |
04 | local min = 0 |
05 | local sec = 0 |
06 |
07 | while true do |
08 | startsec = startsec + 1 |
09 | print("Added 1 sec") |
10 | if startsec == 60 then |
11 | startsec = 0 |
12 | startmin = 1 |
13 | end |
14 | if sec > 9 then |
15 | local mess = "0" .. startmin .. ":" .. startsec |

Because you are not changing the variable 'sec' anywhere in your script, so it always shows a 0 before each number. make sure after every second in your while loop, you put sec=sec+1. Also ensure that startmin when you are using it is startmin+1 where you have put in the while loop, otherwise is will always show startmin's value as 1.
